Christmas Loot Thread - MERRY CHRISTMAS BG

[Boyiee]

Merry Christmas BG. Hope everyone has a great one and most importantly, a healthy one.

SO WHAT DID YOU GUYS GET???

(in b4 cars are posted)

I got a TV so far. Got it a week ago though since mine blew up. More stuff coming in the morning. I spent about 1k on 8 people, my most expensive one yet.

[Cream Soda]

Gave out a few starbucks gift cards; got a couple of kitty plushes for my friend's nieces, writing a card for a friend who like sentimental stuff (no mail box, mail slot in the door, so gonna go drop that off at like 5am)

received, nothing

[Corrderio]

My parents: Kindle Fire HD and 150 dollars.
My brother: Android Tablet

Got to admit I was surprised by the tablet. I wanted a Kindle Fire for some programming books since I have enough crap on my tables/shelves, but the tablet is one hell of a bonus since I wanted to look into droid programming sometime.

Does it count if I bought it for myself? 2012 Mustang GT 5.0


Gotten roughly 300$ in cash so far from relatives (enough for a car payment lol), my significant other bought me a CAI from JLT and a tuner, think my mom is paying to get the windows tinted and a new sound system. Other than that no idea what else lol.

[Boyiee]

As far as what I got for others:

Sister1: 100$ marshalls gift card, 2 scarfs.
Sister2: 120$ Hot stone massage + extra thing from place
Niece1: $50 at target (her clothes were lost in a dryer fire) and 2 3DS games
Niece2: 2 yr old, so I got her a Dora baby thing.
Mom: This perfume she wanted, her Bday is the 26th and I got her a $125 hair appointment.
Dad: Nice Carhartt jacket.
Girlfriend: Coach purse/bag whatever.

My friends secret santa Tactical Christmas Gifts from last week:
Friend with AR15: Grippod Foregrip/Bipod
Friend with Saiga: Foregrip/Taclight, compressor, tactical tomahawk lol
Friend with XD: Fiber optic sights.

My tactical christmas gifts were:
Laser Guided Scissors
.40 ammo
a new Knife
and Crimson Trace laser grips, which run around $300.

[Churchill]

as a government employee you should have been able to get those crimson trace grips for 125-150

[shepardG]

5 nerf guns
5-6 packs of ammo for said guns
700 piece star wars lego set
100 piece LOTR "shelob attacks" lego set
2 32gig thumb drives (usb3.0)
and this mother fucker that was a total surprise but is fucking bad fucking ass


assorted fat kid pills
like 10 B-ray's to include but not limited to, Lotr trilogy extended special uncut unrated magnificent edition, 5th element, firefly series, resevior dogs, walking dead season 2
a case pocket knife
this swiss tech key chain multi tool thing
a wired xbox controller (for dark souls on the pc)
a star wars darth mall 16inch light saber that lights up

i think that's it. Not a bad haul, all i got's the wife was a necklace (which probably cost twice as much as all that crap she got me, lol)

[Stumblingdrunk]

You better have gotten the tactical bacon

[shepardG]

it was on the wish list, but alas, not yet. I may buy some for myself

but seriously, how fucking fun are nerf guns? they have the disc ones now that are accurate as shit and have crazy good range.

Spoiler: show

My first actual guitar. My other one is a shitty 80$ peavy that hasn't worked in 5 years. Do I have an amp and chord that works? Nah. OHWELL.

EDIT: I also don't know anything about guitars, and I think I fucked up the action when I restrung it, cause the thing right above where the strings come out of comes off, and there like these nobby things that twist, and yeah, those got all twisted when I was polishing it, which kinda messed up the action I guess? I dunno, the store I got it from is like 40minutes away, I might take it over there and have them redo it or something lol.

[arus2001]

Only thing of consequence would be money, which I've converted to a gamepad for my PC, a USB video input so I could try my hand at streaming/recording gaming, and a new razer naga to replace the one that went click-happy on me a few months back. I guess if you want to counter prior to today/yesterday, I'd picked up Dark Souls and a few 360 games. Though, now that I think about it, I should look and see if I can find some 360 controller charger thingies on the cheap since I think my catch-all rechargeable batteries are nearing the end of the lifespan.

Merry Christmas BG

[Vandole]

I was about to make this thread. Fuck you, Boyiee.




Put small gifts in big boxes. Currently sitting in the recliner with my dog sleepin on the chair legs while Trapped in the Closet plays. If you didn't know, bg bucket works on your smartphone apparently. Just figured that out..

Grats.
I've never owned a guitar with that kind of bridge setup, but if you're not recording professionally and it feels fine, then I wouldn't waste the time/money to take it to a shop. I doubt a nice PRS is going to have intonation problems if, how it sounds, you just messed with the action a little.

Haven't gotten anything yet, though I bought a car cash, so I look at it as giving my girlfriend half of a 2013 Corolla.

[hey]

SO WHAT DID YOU GUYS GET???

Nothing for 2-4 more hours.

But should be: 256 gb samsung 830, sansa fuze, 32 gb micro sd card, roughly $300-350 cash, and some other misc things that i probably don't want.

[jmc]

Bought myself a ipad retina, and girlfriend bought me airfare for a 2 week trip to florida.

Merry Christmas :>

[Roranora]

happy christmas bg peeps

nothing for me -- I'm having the most depressing christmas of my life by myself working in the middle of africa

regretting the expatriate decision today at least; can't wait to see friends and family again

I imagine I have some Packers swag waiting for me when I get back

[Lokus]

I normally don't celebrate or outright ignore Christmas every year (giving and receiving) but I got hooked up by work this year. Ipad Mini, limited edition and engraved watch, and an ipod nano. My brother also got me a pair of shoes. Grinch out~

[kuronosan]

Merry Christmas from the lab rats guys. Wife got me a new robe and PJ set and wallet plus Christmas nookie. That will be it until I get done saving people. Stay safe.
